HOW TO JOIN THE FREE TELEPRACTICE GROUP
I feel excited to report that the Radical Compassion telephone practice group has been meeting for over two years now!
LIVE PRACTICE GROUP COMPONENT
Teleconference (Telephone) Practice Group: Live, Interactive, Supportive!
CNVC certified trainers Jim and/or Jori Manske and others rotate facilitation of the group.
The purpose of this practice group is to deepen people's ability to live an NVC consciousness and to foster community that is based on honesty and grounded in self-connection. We are excited about using the telephone technology available to us to connect with the diversity in our NVC community. People from Europe, South America, the US and Canada from the east coast all the way west to Hawaii, as well as New Zealand and Australia participate in this practice group.

Teleconference Dates and Times
The practice group meets each Thursday for 90 minutes at 4:00 US-PT. Below is a list of how this time translates into other time zones. Times may vary due to daylight savings time, summer time, and other time changes around the world, so check with NVC Academy.

6 pm US Central Time
7 pm US Eastern Time
2300 GMT Greenwich Mean Time (UTC)
Each time someone calls in, everyone hears a beep in their phone. This can stimulate frustration as people try to connect with each other. To contribute to everyone's ease and ability to stay present, please call in five (5) minutes before the call is scheduled to begin.
Contribution
To meet our needs to contribute and build diversity in our community, we do not have a specific request for the Teleconference Practice Group. However, we would enjoy receiving contributions from people whose needs are met through the practice group and who would receive joy in contributing to our financial security and mutuality. We are grateful for all contributions that come from a joyful heart and a sincere desire to contribute back to us.
You may make an online donation at any time:

Teleconference Access Information
Accessing the Teleconference Practice Group is a simple process. Using your telephone, you will dial a TOLL phone number. There you will receive an automated prompt asking for your access code. You will then be connected to the practice group. Please take a moment to listen in, and when you sense an opening in the conversation announce yourself.
(Please Note: You will be provided the phone number and access code after you enroll. This is a TOLL call, and you will be billed for the duration of the call by your long distance provider.)
Recording of Practice Group Sessions and Playback Information
Each call will be recorded. Access to these recordings is free and available to everyone registered in the practice group to listen to at their leisure. The recordings are available 24 hours a day immediately after a practice group session through the beginning of the next practice group session. Each call records over the previous one.
It is possible that segments from the practice group will be used as training segments within the NVC Academy. By registering for this course and participating in calls, you are giving the Academy permission to use the material in support of its mission to expand and enhance opportunities for people to live an NVC consciousness.
REQUEST FOR FEEDBACK
As this is an experimental group, your feedback is vital to me. Throughout your participation, I would enjoy hearing about what works about the online practice group and any problems that arise (either technical issues or any other needs of your that are unmet.)
I am hopeful that together we can all refine this idea into an effective strategy to make NVC available easily to anyone with telephone service or an internet connection!
